I met David Draper several years ago, long before he became the Editor of the iconic Pertersen's HUNTING magazine, back when he worked for Cabela's. During our visit at the W&L Guide Service's bear hunting camp in Alberta, Canada, David talks about his early years, growing up in rural Nebraska, his time at Cabela's and his eventual and eventful move to become the editor of the world's most recognized strictly hunting publication. During 2023 Petersen's Hunting celebrates its 50th Anniversary. I sold my first article to Petersen's back about 1975. David and I talk about hunting, and even a bit of fishing.
